jumping the gun???.....gun jumped

I have mentioned before that I am a total winter lover! But as much as I love winter I also love the change of seasons. So this year for some odd reason I just couldn't wait for spring to get here so that I could start my flowers and veggie garden. Well with it still being nose hair freezing outside I decided to start my plants in the house. See, now lots of people start plants in their house, its a good way to plant a veggie and flower garden for a lot cheaper. But where the not so smart part came in is when I decided to start my veggies and flowers in.......(ahem)..March.

2 months
(Veggies,Zinnia's, Cosmo's, and painted daisies) 

2 1/2 months
Sadly this is the best they have looked. By this point  my poor squashes needed to be outside. But the weather  was still to risky when you can have every kind of weather within three hours......so it was still about two weeks after this before I was able to safely plant them outside....by that time they were kinda looking a little on the sad side. But oh well....
I was very excited to get my living room back to my living room after everything was planted. Note to self next year.....do the same thing....just maybe a month OR MORE later. Patience ....something I am working on, its just taking to long.
